I don't mean to step on rd's toes here, but I have some tile in my home as well so I feel like I'm informed enough to give me thoughts on this question.  Yes.

yes. it's really good. i think you're making a good choice here. doesn't sound like _33 has the exact same tile in his house though, so i would pretty much throw his opinion out the window. def good for walking on though.

UPDATE:

We decided not to finish the basement. We think it will be easier to just up and buy a bigger/better house if we need the room.

So, just about wrapped up finishing my basement. Leaning heavily towards a projector as opposed to a Plasma/LCD. Anyone have any thoughts on the two? Or any recomendo's on a projo? Thinking ceiling mount, 120" screen, and lots of c@'s games  :D

My parents have one in their basement.  I like watching sporting events and movies on them.  I have no idea what type of projector it is, but I seem to enjoy it when I'm watching stuff there.  It has been there for 7 years and still works.

I had a potential renter offer to finish my basement on his own dime per my specs. Was caught off guard.
